I like to make games in my spare time but I ran out of ideas so I want to make one based off of a manga/anime. The game type is going to be a 2d shooter(like how the old contra games were). I was thinking of making it out of naruto but i am not sure yet. I would appreciate any thoughts or ideas(including a anime/manga that would work better) about this. Thanks.

Black Lagoon would be one of the best shooters to grace Earth.

an RPG based on Fate Stay Night.

Death should be embraced, not rejected.

Fate/stay night!!!!!!! squeal I don't think he/she's looking towards an RPG, though

Get a dedicated concept artist before you start, and build your game around your engine, not the other way around.

I'm not sure that's the best idea... Game Design comes first. Game ideas shouldn't be bounded by techniques and engines.
